My partner and I are doing some traveling and dispersed camping in some fairly remote locations. We listen to audiobooks quit a bit and on one of our legs we listened to The Twisted Ones by T. Kingfisher and it was so perfectly creepy and we want more of it. The combination of the wooded setting, and psychological type horror that was more creepy than graphic really made the week after listening to it kinda terrifying. We’ve read Pet Sematary previously and it also really hit the right notes and would have been a great read deep in the trees.

We read Salems Lot and What Moves the Dead and while we enjoyed them, they did not hit the same spot. Vampires aren’t creepy in the right way and neither was What Moves the Dead. Horror isn’t our normal genre and we don’t know where to go from here. We’d really appreciate some some reccomendations

      I don’t like when I’m hiking and they stare me down as I walk by. I’ll add this to my list thanks
